For stacking software there are two popular choices: RegiStax 6 and AutoStakkert!3 (aka AS!3). The stacking software will discard the low quality frames in your movie file and align the remaining images and more or less take the average of them. In the beginning there was only RegiStax. RegiStax will do both the stacking and processing steps. Registax For Mac Download It's been a good three years now since I swapped my HP laptop for a Macbook Pro. In the mean time, I've started doing a bit more astrophotography and of course the change of operating system has affected the tools I use to obtain and process photos.
Super Blue Blood Moon happened and everyone came to get these files and Dropbox has temporarily suspended my links. Oh no!
The instructions below for creating your own wineskin packages will still work. In the meantime I’ll work on getting my prebuilt wineskin package links back up.

Registax For Mac
Many pieces of software used for astronomy do not have equivalents that can be used by those of us running OSX on macintosh computers. I have made a few wineskin wrapped versions of the software that I am currently using and I have made them available here for you.
You must first download Wineskin Winery and install it.
You can then wrap Software such as Registax and AutoStakkert so that they will run almost seamlessly in OSX. If you want to skip this step, you still need to install wineskin winery, but you can use the wineskin wrapped versions of Registax and AutoStakkert that I’ve prepared below. They are currently running without issue on OSX 10.10.
Registax For Mac Os X
Download Registax 6.1.0.8 packaged in Wine for OSX.
Registax Equivalent For Mac
Download AutoStakkert 2.3.0.21 packaged in Wine for OSX. This wrapper has the windows ffmpeg executables already installed that will allow you to import .mov files without having to transcode them.
Enjoy!
